Real World: Girl Fight

This week, the Real World Sydney was all about man stealing drama! It also showed us different sides to the roomies, and multi-dimensional is always an ambitious way to go on a reality show. It worked though, I just wrote the longest recap ever agreeing with Cow and Trasha, and trashing Parisa. Grab a drink, you're so gonna need it for this one.

Allmeans

We start off with Cow and Isaac stationed at their post in the kitchen, but this time, there's action! Get ready for this one...the roommates think Cow is doing it with KA! Isaac calls him a lucky bastard, but Cow says whatever is happening, he's not going to broadcast it. Isaac is confused. When he did that random Irish girl that one time, there was talk of a parade.

Well, I'm still on this Cow - KA thing, you can't just drop that information and move on, but when I see what we're moving on to, I'm consoled. Trasha's calling Jarrod, her boyfriend back home who she has evil, sinful sex with. Apparently, Trash had sent Jarrod an email telling him about her attraction to Alex, who's been hanging out at the house every night. Every night means the perfect opportunity for an Alex wardrobe montage - an opportunity that the production team seems to have missed.

Auss
Let me guess...dress shoes with no socks?

After having passively dealt with telling Jarrod she wants to cheat on him by sending an email, she runs to the phone to do damage control. I'm not sure if Jarrod is dumb or just whipped, but either way, he could not be more trusting of Trasha. She assures him that although Alex is over the house every night, and although they're already done their "flirtatious bit", Jarrod has nothing to worry about.

She tells Shauvon as they do the dishes (all wineglasses, by the way, loves it) that she's attracted to Alex, but in love with Jarrod. Then she bitches that, what, she's not allowed to hang out with any hot guys for the rest of her life because she has a boyfriend? First of all, is Alex a hot guy? But beyond that, I see the conundrum. Trasha's a ho, but she can't be one outwardly, cause she's a Christian. So, she compromises by having one monogamous sexual relationship. Which works when Jarrod is around all the time, but in the land of temptation...hello, Alex and we have a problem.

Alex comes over that night, and hey, no better way to sort out those complicated I'm-so-in-love-but-I'm-still-attracted-to-other-people issues than snuggling up with the object of temptation and checking out a photo album of you and your boyfriend. That should illuminate everything. But it doesn't, and Trasha buries her head in Alex's chest moaning "I'm so confused!"

Later as Alex is innocently walking by Parisa's room, she drags him into her midwestern housewife style wardrobe crisis. She asks him what she thinks of her outfit - drab olive tank, and mom jeans. You don't look bad at all, he says, cause Parisa's the kind of insecure girl you get by making her think she's not good enough for you - and also, as we'll see later, this is Alex's game. "What would you do differently?" she presses him. Alex suggests a mini-skirt. Things are still unclear with Trasha's status, and hey, if you gotta go for sloppy seconds, may as well tart them up as much as possible.

Maybeatshirt
You should wear a t-shirt and a blazer.

Parisa tells us she's "trying to read Alex". Read into Alex, is more like it. You only got him in your room cause you dragged him in, and he's only still standing there cause Trasha's right outside getting jealous. Parisa tells Alex that if he fucks with her, she'll call him on it. And that he doesn't have to be witty all the time. Wow, does Parisa know what to say to land a man, or what? Shauvon is sitting there the whole time, and she can't believe what she's hearing either.

The group, minus Trasha, sits outside at their little picnic table where they hang out, and Dumby declares that Alex wouldn't have made it to first base with Trasha in the States. Oh Dumby, how juvenile to measure sexual prowess with Little League analogies. What is first base anyway? I personally wouldn't know, I've been hitting homers for years.

kevintheomanharris:

good to see you giving Parisa what she really deserves.

Although, Parisa did have a point, Trisha really has no right to claim a man when she already has a boyfriend.


Anyways, I've always loved the two color hair thing on girls. Always figured I liked it because it looked slutty. Perhaps I am in fact more sophisticated than I thought. Maybe I like it because I enjoy having options. Though, that doesnt explain why I like corsets and fishnets though.

BonFide:

Awesome recap!

ChickBomb, you are getting really good at this! Your commentary is so honest and insightful. Keep it up.

I think that people WANT to like Parisa because she is natural prey for girls like Trisha, but it is hard to come to her defense after this debacle!

KellyAnne is my favorite of the cast. Isaac comes in at a close second.

Krizzatch [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Ummm, ChickBomb, usually I agree with your recaps. This time though, I didn't. Trasha already HAS A MAN back home, she doesn't get to call out dibs all over Australia just because her real boyfriend is on another continent - - Parisa was completely in the right. Plus, the "sneaky PA" didn't really exist - I think Alex really had feelings for Parisa... and figured that he like Parisa better after coming home with the bar skank Trasha.

Also, I'll just say that Alex was playing both of them (not well, but playing them all the same) Parisa wasn't trying to STEAL him from Trasha... she was just getting played, similar to Trasha.

Seeing how those two bimbos reacted to being a "seven" on the scale of hotness was hilarious to me, and Cow is my new best friend.

carol:

Trisha is annoying. She has a man at home that she cant stop talking about (even though it goes against her god to have sex with him) yet she 'claims' Alex. It is like she needs guys to like her to make herself feel good. Alex was awesome when he rated the girls, in my opinion he was right. Those two girls have HUGE egos.

Isthisawkward:

oh man. this episode was so ridiculous! it only perpetuates the idea that women are allowed to be irrational because they can't help it.

as a woman, it pisses me off!

Trasha needs to chill out, KA needs to chill out, and Parisa really needs to find some self worth, because she's totally hot she just doesn't believe it!

Isaac is by far my favorite, hes the only level headed one, and while cow was speaking the truth this episode, he's still a sexist closed minded person in general.

EZ Rider:

Isaac is my favorite too. He's hilarious.

And Trisha and Shauvon are a 7, at the most. On a good day.

spreadhead:

First of all, I live in GA, and I think I want to go to Blue Ridge and track down Cohutta...although I love him and KA together. Also, on a random Mall World side note...has anyone else noticed that one of the writers or directors or something on the credits is Milo Ventimaglia (whatever his last name is) from heroes?

DP Hooker:

Favorite line of the recap:

"Get home safely, chuckles frumpy Parisa, as she heads back inside to clean out Marge's casserole dish before she returns it. "

I agree with everyone else that Trasha doesn't get dibs, but Parisa is definitely one desperate chick.

Shauvon has one hugely overinflated ego, saying that every other guy at that bar would have thought she was a 10. No f-ing way. EZ Rider is right - 7 on a very very good day.

llolyd dobbler:

Chickbomb!!! Great recap!

1) Loved the flasher rock of love reference
2)Trasha and shauvon, i dont know what is funnier, someone actually telling them they are a 7 or that they think they are 10's!(by the way chickbomb you are a 10 all the way:)
3) Favorite caption;"He rang the door bell. I think he loves me!"
4)I love cows country wisdom,its like a warm bowl of grits in a cold,cold, bitchy world!
5)Parisa.......she needs to get a puppy if she wants unadulterated love. I mean she would be its only source of food and water, either that or trap some guy down a well and feed him via a bucket like in silence of the lambs, now thats true love!

shia0bundan:

.. I really wanted to like Parisa, but she makes it so hard! That said.. I don't think Trasha has a claim to Alex at all. It was really irritating how smug and sing-songy Parisa got over her sloppy seconds though.

I think Isaac and Cow (sometimes Kelly Ann) are awesome. They are so unpretentious its refreshing after those Denver morons.

Oh yeah.. and I liked Shavaun before this episode but come on.. she really is a 6. Trasha deserves more than a 6, but Shavaun? Get outtaaa here! She has the worst haircut I've ever seen. Its way too thin to be worn that long and bleached that light!

the_baddest_bitch:

Good Lord! I wasn't intending on watching this season. I've been pretty much done with RW since the Vegas cast, but this trainwreck is just too compelling to walk away from. Cow is sweet and down-to-earth. KellyAnne has actually proven to be a pretty cool chick and I love Isaac. Parisa is the saddest sack I've ever seen. She's one of those girls that's book smart, but does not have one ounce of common sense or sense of self. She is convinced that ANY and EVERY guy that smiles at her or utters more than two words to her is her new soulmate. She really needs to relax and just let a dude court her rather than throw herself at any guy that is in the room. It's really sad and annoying. I thought I was going to like her, but I cannot stand a needy woman with zero self-esteem, especially when they are clearly clueless as to when they are being blown off in no uncertain terms (Dunbar) or just being played (Alex).

happyh0ur:

These two are both bad. I don't think Trasha should get off so easy because she claimed him. She is spoken for....Parisa does have a right to make a claim. That being said Parisa does come off as pathetic and desperate for trying to get him.

And what is with him anyway? Did I miss something that says this guy is hot???

SnackyCakes420:

As stupid and entertaining as these girls are to watch, all of them give normal girls a bad name and that sucks. I think it's funny how every single one of them thinks they're the confident empowered one when they are all acting insecure and lame. KA getting mad over her "on a break" boyfriend hanging out with another girl is lame, especially when she flat out tells Cow she's not in love with him. Trasha macking on Alex when she has a boyfriend because she needs male attention is lame. Parisa shamelessly throwing herself at Alex when he's obviously got a thing for Trasha and doesn't like her that way is lame. Shavoun getting in a huff because one guy in Australia drunkenly calls her a 6 is lame.

I would hate to be stuck in a house with any of those girls, much less all four of them.

jennm926:

ChickBomb,

I Heart You. This was an awesome recap.

Why is no one blaming Alex for any of this? Seriously. He is playing Trasha and Parisa against either and they're falling for it hook, line and sinker. He's making himself look like he's the man, what with having two American women fight over him and all. :rolls eyes: Even Isaac (who has become the voice of reason!) called that one.

Amazingly as this season goes on, I find myself liking Isaac and Cow more and more. Even KA, who annoyed me at first has become remarkably endearing.

bakismaki:

whatever physical attraction I had to chauvon flew out the window in this episode.

mattypopo:

These chicks suck! Period. KA is really the only good looking one, and the others mitigate any attractivness they may have had by their countless flaws.

And these girls knew what they are doing, Alex isin't doing anything except trying to bone some dumb american sluts on camera, and these girls are trying to get their Outback tonight. Win/win or lose/lose either way the scores the same for all three.

Parisa needs a starter boyfriend that she can get all her psychosis out on.

andreak1013:

i have to admit (shamefully) that i agree with trasha on one point. yes, there is a "girl code," and yes, once a girl hangs out with a guy first, then you are risking friction by trying him on for size yourself afterwards. however, what trasha conveniently ignores is the fact that (at least, i feel) if the girl who declared a crush on the boy first already has a boyfriend, no matter how far away or what their status is, then the "girl code" is null and void for anyone else. too bad for trasha; i'm not one to root for the "have my cake and eat it, too. not only have it and eat it, but refuse to let anyone else LOOK at it" girls.

i usually adore your recaps, so i greatly looked forward to some trasha-bashing in this one. i was slightly disappointed when i found her cast in somewhat of a positive light when i thought she was being just a little ridiculous.

disclaimer: my intense dislike for trasha in no way puts me on parisa's side. holy poster child for insecurity and low self-esteem, batman. it used to border delusional, and this episode pushed it right over the edge.

shauvon's little tantrum over being called a 6/7 didn't bother me that much. it's easy for girls to act disgusted and call other girls shallow when they watch from the outside, but give me any girl who claims she doesn't care about her appearance just a little bit and wouldn't ask something stupid like that or act irrationally with alcohol in her, and i'll call bullshit. i generally like shauvon, my only qualm with her is that it seems to be a pattern with her to be an angry, abrasive drunk. eep.

CheriesTake:

To spreadhead-I live in Ga too so I'll join you on the Cow stalker bandwagon! That did not sound right.

Great recap chickbomb! I just love this show so much right now. It's a sad, stupid, silly WTF? kind of love but love just the same!

domino:

ChickBomb, I also really liked the recap but wished you would have trashed Trasha more, as she deserved. One, both she and Parisa are stupid for not realizing that Alex just wants camera time and will take it wherever they can get it. And two, she really needs to be called out for claiming to be so religious one minute and then turning around and skanking it up behind her boyfriend's back the next.

I usually don't like Cohutta's country-fried wisdom, but he was right in this episode. I especially liked his criticism of Shauvon and Trasha after the "you're a 6" incident---and I totally agree with you, ChickBomb, that KA would have asked her number if he hadn't spoken first. Loved it!

HereKittyKitty:

ChickBomb normally I agree with you 100% but this time....

Yes, Parisa was a bit desperate. Is this a reason for calling her frumpy for not putting her TA on national television? I think not! I will agree that girl needs to get some self-esteem, because she has a lot more going for her than Skunk Hair. I'm hoping that the 15 second black bar beeped out cussing is Parisa growing some self-esteem this week. It's about time that someone yelled at the whore who lives in a trash heap back home.

Also... Trasha is nothing but trash. There is a word for girls like her that collect men while having boyfriends... and it's slutty whore. When Alex told her that she was a six or seven, the first thought in my head was "maybe her body, but DEFINITLEY not her face." Trasha is just that... Trash.

And another thing, why were these girls fighting over Alex exactly? If that's the best Aussie has to offer, forget about that Spring Break trip down under.

Cow and KA remind me of an old married couple sitting on a porch commenting on family drama. Love them!

Krizzatch [TypeKey Profile Page]:

"There is a word for girls like her that collect men while having boyfriends... and it's slutty whore."

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA, good one, HereKittyKitty.

jozeyg:

I loooove KA and Cow. They are soo adorable together. I admit, i really really didn't like KA in the beginning of the season. She came off as really concieted, like she was the hottest thing these boys have ever seen. But lately she cooled down a bit and now is acting like a cool ass girl. I thought she would be the one causing all the drama this season....whoever would've guessed all the drama would be started by ms. i'm soo religious. You have a boyfriend!!

Parisa is kind of annoying too.....she was acting too desperate. But I hope she kicks Trasha's ass.

On a side note...have you noticed that trasha and shavoun are always fixing themselves like every minute, and always need to dress up and wear their Gucci shades whenever they go out, and they still don't look as cute as KA. She doesn't even put makeup on or hoochie clothes on to look hot. No wonder those guys rated the skunk hairs as a 6...they look like a mess. Maybe if they stopped tryin so hard, they would actually look good.

p.s. i'm rooting for Cow and KA! and i've always liked Isaac ever since the 'sorry I called u a slut' thing. And it is cute that him and KA have a brother/sister thing goin on.
